Stove and furnace



FICE.

THEODORE COOK, OF SPRINGFIELD, MASSACHUSETTS.

ST'OVE AND FUR-NACE.

Specification of Letters Patent No. 16,268, dated December 23, 1856.

To all whom it may concern:

Be it known that I, THEODORE COOK, of

` Springtield, in the county of Hampden and State of Massachusettahave invented a new and Improved Air Heat-ing and Radiating Stove; and I do hereby declare that the tollowing is a full, clear, and exact description of the same, reference being had to the annexed drawings, making a part of this specification, in which Figure l is an external view of my improvement. Fig. 2 Iis a vertical section of the same. Fig. 3 is a detached plan or top view of the innermost chamber which encompasses the upper part of the fire chamber.

Similar letters of reference indicate corresponding parts in the several figures.

My invention consists in the peculiar construction of the stove, the arrangement of the parts etc., as will be hereinafter fully shown and described, whereby the heat is radiated in a perfect manner, and also cold air heated to be conveyed to other apartments besides the one inwhich the stove is placed.

To enable those skilled in the art to fully will proceed to describe it.

A represents the tire chamber or pot which is placed on a suitable base B.

C is a chamber the lower part (a) of which is of conical form, and rests upon a tlanch (o) surrounding the tire pot. The upper part (o) of this chamber is of cylindrical form and is separated from the lower part by a partition plate (el). The part (o) is provided with a vertical pipe (e) and vertical tubes (f) pass entirely through the part (c) communicating with the part (a) below, as plainly shown in Fig. Q-and the upper end of the ire chamber communicates by means of a pipe (e) with the part (e).

D is a cylindrical case which surrounds the part (c) of the chamber C. This case is somewhat larger in diameter than the part (c) and considerably higher and is provided with a vertical pipe (g) at its upper end. The lower end of the case D rests on a lanch (a) surrounding the chamber C.

E is a cylindrical case which encompasses the case D. The case E is larger in diameter and height than the case D and is provided with a pipe (la).

The ire chamber or pot is encompassed by a cylindrical tender or guard F of open ornamental style as shown in Fig. l.

Gr are vertical pipes, the lower ends of which pass through the base B, and the upper ends communicate with the lower part (a) of the chamber C.

H are vertical tubes the lower ends of which pass through the base B and the upper ends communicate with an annular chamber I which surrounds the fire chamber or pot A about half way between its upper and lower end. The chamber I communicates with the tire chamber by means of small openings (i) shown in Fig. 2.

The pipe (g) ofthe case D passes up through the top of the case E and the pipe (e) of the part (c) of the chamber Cpasses up through the top of the case D and communicates with the interior of the case E.

J are passages by which the part (o) communicates with the interior of the case E at its lower end and K are openings made through the flanch (a) see Fig. 3. The openings K allow the external air to pass into the case D.

From the above description of parts it will be seen that the heat from the fire chamber passes up through the pipe (e) into the part (c) of the chamber C and thence through the passages J into the case E and then into the pipe (71,). This is the circuitous route as shown by the solid black arrows, but when a direct draft is required the heat passes up through the pipe (e) direct into the upper part of the case E and the pipe (e) may be provided with a damper. (The cold air to be heated passes up through the pipes Gr into the part (a) of the chamber C and through the pipes (f) into the case D, thence upward through the pipe (g). Cold air also passes directly into the case D through the openings K. The pipe (g) is connected with pipes which convey the heated air to the desired apartments.

By the above improvement the heat is radiated in a perfect manner and a large volume of air may be heated to be conveyed to different apartments.

The pipes H and annular chamber I keep the iire supplied with air at its upper surface and consequently prevent inflammable pipes and arranged relatively with each gases from escaping uneonsumed. other as shown and described for the pur- Havng thus described my lnventon what pose specified.

I claim as new and desire to secure by Let- THEODORE COOK. 5 ters Patent s- Witnesses:

The re-ehalnber or pot A, chamber C and N. A. LEONARD, eases D, E, provided With the necessary A. H. MERRICK.
